<u>Answer:</u> The heat required for the process is 4.24 kJ
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
Given mass of benzene = 24.8 g
Molar mass of benzene = 78.11 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:
where,
= amount of heat absorbed = ?
n = number of moles = 0.318 moles
= enthalpy change of the reaction = 30.7 kJ/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the heat required for the process is 4.24 kJ
